This dude talks like I use to when I was smoked up on some skunk weed but besides that, the pilots of that plan did a 180 degree turn and made a fearless belly landing that would have saved all aboard until they ran into a CONCRETE WALL at the end of the runway!!!! Yeah, I wonder whose idea it was to put a WALL at the end of a runway?????????????
Why didn't the pilot activate/switch on the APU. . That's the second or backup power source. Small gas turbine in the tail. Seems like something may have been going on inside the plane.turned on a dime, no flaps or landing gear. They were trying to get on the ground fast. So that aircraft didn't have battery backup to the black boxes. And the APU wasn't turned on . So the info couldn't get to the boxes..
APU's work on the ground and in the air. APU's need to be started and shut down manually. When an engine fails, one of the first things in the Engine Failure Checklist is start the APU.
Yes everyone knows it's turned off in flight.and it has to be turned on when needed. Not sure what your going about. But it's bedtime. Six to eight. I'll follow up.

Because the APU has a “squat switch” that deactivates the APU in the air.

I worked on aircraft for 22 years. Every one had a squat switch that kept the APU from starting once the aircraft left the ground.
